When a device is hot removed on powernv, the hotplug driver clears
the device's state. However, on pseries, if a device is removed by
phyp after reaching the error threshold, the kernel remains unaware,
leading to the device not being torn down. This prevents necessary
remediation actions like failover.

Permanently disable the device if the presence check fails.

Also, in eeh_dev_check_failure in we may consider the error as false
positive if the device is hotpluged out as the get_state call returns
EEH_STATE_NOT_SUPPORT and we may end up not clearing the device state,
so log the event if the state is not moved to permanent failure state.
